“We Shall Overcome” belongs to minorities and the oppressed. Using it in this way is therefore racist and classist. Trump is a rich white man, and is therefore open to any and all ridicule, including jokes about his appearance, but to appropriate the classic song of the oppressed to make this point is to number yourself among the oppressors.
If this were the first time I’d read any of your posts, Moor, I would have never once sensed your scathing satire. Seriously, I had to read it twice before I could laugh…because it was SO exactly like what I’ve heard for real.
Doug,

So “native Americans” in SD should not be wearing t-shirts reading “We shall overrun?” How about “Resisting tyranny since 1492?”
Pretty great. A few more:

Lol, DW wishes he had only half of one of the Donald’s balls. Then Wilson would be twice the man he wishes he could be.
